harry reid was on the senate floor as you probably heard. he indicated he may be talking with mitch mcconnell later today, and he said that he was confident there might be some kind of deal in the works or that republicans may relent and give them the clean debt ceiling bill and the clean continuing resolution bill they have been seeking, but it's all very much in the air. but at least we can report at this point, miguel, that things have settled down outside the white house, although i can tell you that there are some vehicles going down pennsylvania avenue, park police vehicles, with their sirens on in case you're hearing some of that noise. >> we can hear that. >> reporter: but for the most part things have settled down here. >> these protests though are very emotional obviously. the veterans, many groups have not been happy with this administration and have expressed their concerns with them. they have been growing over the days. there were world war ii vets that went owe the memorial to begin with. congressmen went out there to open the
